Eureka

The Hop Adventure Series has been developed to showcase some of our favourite and the most interesting hops from around the world. With this in mind we designed a beer that would allow the hops to display their full flavour and aroma. The beer’s style is a Single Hop India Pale Ale meaning one hop was used for bittering, aroma and several doses of dry-hopping.

We head State side for the latest edition in the series selecting the Eureka hop from the Yakima Valley. We chose this hop for its strong bittering qualities combined with its complex and full-bodied flavour and aroma profile. Bursting with flavours of tropical fruit, citrus, and the juicy bitterness of grapefruit which is rounded off by sweet pineapple. This single hop IPA is one not to be missed

ADDITIONAL TASTING NOTES

Colour/Appearance
Light golden colour with a light haze and a golden head.

Hop breeding programmes from around the world are getting more and more impressive with the variety of flavours that are appearing in hops as well as the intensity of the flavour that some hops can carry. These new hops are usually associated with just a few countries with USA, Australia and New Zealand getting all of the attention. However, it’s great to see that some of the more traditional hop growing regions are coming out with new styles that are gaining traction too.

EUREKA HOP

Complex in nature, Eureka is dank and resinous with fruity notes ranging all the way from tropical-citrus to dark stone fruit. Eureka rounds out blends and truly shines as a late hop addition. A variety for the "classic hop head," Eureka is one you won’t want to miss
